we can count them and we know we are
right. Then we go through the bunch

going over them several times 10 make

commercial transactions are entered into very
cautiously The continued inclement weather

grain especially are small. Retail trade has also
suffered very materially. o. S. bonds are quiet
but steady Virginia bonds are very quiet, and
